Looking at the replay

he was safe.

foot touched before the tag.

huge play indeed.

Which reminds me...

I’m not too excited about instant replay coming to baseball.

by mikeonthecards on Aug 24, 2008 3:55 PM EDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

it is just for home runs

so, I do not have a problem with it

I know,

but I can’t help but think they’ll expand it eventually to fair/foul, then to catch/no catch, then to out/safe, etc. That will suck!

by mikeonthecards on Aug 24, 2008 3:57 PM EDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

6, one way

half dozen the other.

how many times have you seen a play where the guy on your team was safe, or made a catch, that the umpiring crew blew the call on, and that ultimately affected the game?

C'mon you Redbirds, lets prove em' wrong, again!

by yer dog first on Aug 24, 2008 3:59 PM EDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

yes, isnt the point of the umpire to make the correct call

so why not use tools to make sure the calls are correct

by FunkeeC on Aug 24, 2008 4:01 PM EDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

exactly

it works fairly well in football, Id say.

C'mon you Redbirds, lets prove em' wrong, again!

by yer dog first on Aug 24, 2008 4:02 PM EDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Not really?

Half the time the stuff that should get reviewed doesn’t. It slows down the game even more. And, they often times still don’t get the call right because of ‘the ruling on the field’.

It’s worked for 150 years, why change now?

The only time replay really works in the NFL

is on boundary calls (such as toes in, breaking plain, etc). Which is what MLB is going to use it for.

Expanding on that would be a mistake.

Unless we are replacing the umpires with robots.

i think some system where anything non judgement related

should be able to be looked at. scoring plays, out/safe, fair/foul

now how best to implement it is the key

by FunkeeC on Aug 24, 2008 4:06 PM EDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Just kidding...

Anyway, is every close play going to be reviewed? Are they going to have an extra umpire just to sit and watch replays? Is the ruling on the field going to stand? Where does it stop?

by mikeonthecards on Aug 24, 2008 4:11 PM EDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

as i said, you would need to work out the system

but in the time it takes bobby cox to waddle out and yell at the blue, he could walk to a dugout and watch the replay.

by FunkeeC on Aug 24, 2008 4:15 PM EDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

I hear what you're saying.

For one, I think maybe the bad calls and the gift calls would even themselves out over the course of a year. Secondly, if replays are going to be used in several aspects of the game, the games will last significantly longer.

by mikeonthecards on Aug 24, 2008 4:02 PM EDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

if the outcome is the correct one,

then it is well served.

Perez is the closer
Wainwright is a starter

Yes

but Tony won’t commit to starting Wainwright after that. He still is toying with the idea of putting Carpenter in the rotation and Wainwright in the bullpen.

I like how our "Not our Closer" Young Pitcher

can close games…

Almost as much as I like our new/old closer starting games.

by Harknights on Aug 24, 2008 4:58 PM EDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

I'm a big fan of Perez.

I hope they say he’s the closer going into spring training.

by mikeonthecards on Aug 24, 2008 4:59 PM EDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

That's exactly why I don't want Wainwright putting

training wheels on the bullpen. They have to know if Young Pitcher can do it. If he can’t, they will need to devote significant dollars to an offseason acquisition.

way off topic...

but the HD quality of these national games on TBS is lightyears ahead of ESPN and FOX…it looks great…

by LukeMP1186 on Aug 24, 2008 5:04 PM EDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Yeah, it's quite amazing

I’m not sure how they are doing it. I know that TBS seems to be interlaced while ESPN seems not to be but other than that, it really is quite amazing.

I have hated the Pirates

since this game…

I was home on leave from Iraq and got to go see that game. The Cardinals won their next twelve games against Pittsburgh, but lost that one. It’s the only time the Cards haven’t won when I’ve been at the game…

The Pirates are looking to be our spoiler this year on both ends.

It would have been nice for the Pirates to win that game. The Brewers would have come in on a loss and only 2.5 games up. After winning the game in that type of fashion they are going to be coming into Busch on cloud 9 and feeling pretty good about their chances.

Lohse suspension appeal

anyone know when the appeal for Lohse five game suspension is being held? If he has to serve before 9/3, then we might see a start from Pineiro/Thompson, assuming Carp is back to take over the fifth starter position on Sept 2.

If the appeal is heard after 9/3, then the off days in the first week of Sept will allow the rotation to continue in order with skipping a start by Lohse without using Pineiro/Thompson.

To be fair to the Pirates

earlier in the game the Brewers had the bases loaded and nobody out with Ryan Braun and then Prince Fielder coming up. Braun struck out and Prince gidp! That being said. The Pirates blow, except when playing us this year.
